Abstract

The invention concerns a tachograph in which the centring and entrainment means for the chart discs used as the recording media are disposed in a drawer, and the chart discs can be moved by the drawer between a recording position and an insertion/removal position. To that end, in order to align and lock the drawer in the recording position, a U-shaped bridge (49) is provided which largely follows the format of the side and front walls of the tachograph housing and is secured by means of flexible spring hinges (58, 59) to a tachograph mounting plate such that it assumes the function of a rocker. Secured to the ends of the legs (47, 48) of the bridge (49) are securing pins (45, 46) which cooperate with corresponding depressions in the drawer. The locking of the drawer can be overcome by actuating the bridge (49) or a tab (65), for example, by means of a cam plate, the tab (65) being integrally formed on the web (50) of the bridge (49).

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Fahrtschreiber mit einer Schublade, in welcher die Zentrier- und Mitnahmemittel für die als Aufzeichnungsträger dienenden Diagrammscheiben gelagert und mit welcher eingelegte Diagrammscheiben zwischen einer Registrier- und einer Eingabe-/Entnahmeposition bewegbar sind sowie mit Mitteln, welche ein exaktes Ausrichten und ein Verriegeln der Schublade in der Registrierposition gestatten.The invention relates to a tachograph with a drawer in which the centering and driving means for those serving as record carriers Diagram discs stored and with which inserted diagram discs are movable between a registration and an input / removal position as well as with means which ensure precise alignment and locking of the Allow drawer in the registration position.

Fahrtschreiber mit einer Schub- oder Schwenklade für den Transport von Diagrammscheiben zwischen der Einlege-/Entnahmeposition und der Registrierposition bieten im Vergleich mit solchen mit einem aufklappbaren Deckel aufgrund der kleineren, rechteckförmigen Frontfläche den Vorzug einer größeren Gestaltungsfreiheit hinsichtlich der Anordnung der Instrumente einer Armaturentafel. Gegenüber Fahrtschreibern mit selbsttätigem Einzug von durch einen Schlitz eingebbaren Diagrammscheiben, die ihrerseits insbesondere was den Raumbedarf von dem Gerät bzw. der Armaturentafel anbelangt die beste Lösung darstellen, bietet die gattungsgemäße Bauweise den Vorteil der geringeren Störanfälligkeit infolge klimatisch bedingter Veränderungen der Diagrammscheiben sowie eines weitgehend reduzierten technischen Aufwandes durch Verzicht auf einen selbsttätigen Einzug und Auswurf der Diagrammscheiben.Tachograph with a drawer or swivel drawer for the transport of Diagram slices between the insertion / removal position and the Registration position offer compared to those with a hinged Lid preferred due to the smaller, rectangular front surface greater freedom of design with regard to the arrangement of the instruments Instrument panel. Compared to tachographs with automatic through-feed a slot can be entered diagram slices, which in turn what the best space requirements for the device or dashboard Represent solution, the generic design offers the advantage of less susceptibility to faults due to climatic changes in the Diagram charts and a largely reduced technical effort by foregoing automatic feeding and ejection of the Tachograph charts.

Demgegenüber ist es bei einer Schublade erforderlich, daß sie leicht beweglich ist, das heißt, daß für die Führungsmittel der Schublade relativ große Toleranzen vorgesehen werden müssen. Dies steht im Widerspruch zu der Forderung, daß während des Registrierens eine spielfreie und stets reproduzierbare Positionierung der Schublade gegeben sein muß und Vibrationen der Schublade ausgeschlossen bzw. in bezug auf die Aufzeichnungen unwirksam sind. In contrast, a drawer is required to be light is movable, that is, relatively large for the guide means of the drawer Tolerances must be provided. This contradicts the Require that during the registration a game-free and always reproducible positioning of the drawer must be given and vibrations excluded from the drawer or ineffective in relation to the records are.

Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung war es somit in einem Fahrtschreiber mit einer Schublade als Träger für die Diagrammscheiben und deren Antriebsmittel Mittel vorzusehen, welche ein exaktes Ausrichten und ein Verriegeln der Schublade in der Registrierposition gestatten, wobei die Mittel großseriengerecht gestaltet und mit möglichst geringem Aufwand herstellbar sind.The object of the present invention was therefore in one Tachograph with a drawer as a carrier for the chart disks and the drive means to provide means that an exact alignment and a Allow the drawer to lock in the registration position, taking the funds Designed for large series and can be produced with as little effort as possible are.

Die Lösung der Aufgabe beschreibt der Patentanspruch 1. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung gehen aus den Unteransprüchen hervor.Claim 1 describes the solution to the problem. Advantageous Embodiments of the invention emerge from the subclaims.

Als Vorteil der gefundenen Lösung ist hervorzuheben, daß eine als Wippe gelagerte, u-förmig ausgebildete Brücke vorgesehen ist, die in bezug auf die Seitenwände und die Frontwand des quaderförmigen Gehäuse des Fahrtschreibers im wesentlichen formatfüllend ausgebildet ist und somit wenig Bauraum beansprucht. Dabei ist die Brücke derart gestaltet, daß ihre Schenkel rechtwinklig zur Drehachse der Brücke, die vorzugsweise mittels zweier in der Drehachsebene spielfreien Biegefedergelenken realisiert ist, starr ausgebildet sind und in Richtung der Drehachse eine gewisse Federungsfähigkeit aufweisen. Diese Gestaltung bietet die Voraussetzung dafür, daß den an den Schenkeln der Brücke angebrachten Fixierzapfen in der Schublade den Abmessungen der Fixierzapfen entsprechende Senkungen zugeordnet werden können, das heißt mittels einer maßlichen Überbestimmung bewußt eine Verspannung in Richtung der Drehachse hergestellt werden kann, durch die garantiert ist, daß beide Schenkel der Brücke an der Fixierung der Schublade beteiligt sind.As an advantage of the solution found it should be emphasized that one as a seesaw mounted, U-shaped bridge is provided, which with respect to the Side walls and the front wall of the cuboid housing of the Tachograph is essentially designed to fill the format and thus little Space required. The bridge is designed so that its legs perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the bridge, which is preferably by means of two in the Rotational axis plane free play flexible spring joints is realized, rigid design are and have a certain elasticity in the direction of the axis of rotation. This design provides the prerequisite for that on the legs of the Fixing pin attached in the drawer to the dimensions of the bridge Corresponding countersinks can be assigned to the fixing pin, that is by means of a dimensional overdetermination consciously a bracing in the direction the axis of rotation can be produced, which guarantees that both Legs of the bridge are involved in fixing the drawer.

Erwähnenswert ist ferner, daß die Fixierzapfen und die zugeordneten Senkungen derart konisch ausgebildet sind, daß die so geschaffene Keilverbindung im Zusammenwirken mit der Lage der Drehachse in bezug auf ein Herausziehen der Schublade selbsthemmend wirkt, das heißt, es ist ein in geeigneter Weise gesteuerter Entriegelungsvorgang erforderlich, um die geschlossene Schublade zum Öffnen freizugeben. Von Vorteil insbesondere was die Aufzeichnungssicherheit anbelangt ist außerdem, daß die Fixierzapfen der Schublade derart zugeordnet sind, daß sie in einer Ebene liegen, welche die Ebene, in welcher sich die Spitzen der Registrierorgane bewegen, schneidet. Um einerseits die Biegefedern der Gelenke der Brücke im geschlossenen Zustand der Schublade zu entlasten, andererseits eine relativ hohe Richt- und Verriegelungskraft wirksam werden zu lassen, sind vorzugsweise zwei an den Schenkeln der Brücke angreifende Schenkelfedern vorgesehen, die beim Schließen der Schublade aufgrund der an der Schublade vorgesehenen den Fixierzapfen zugeordneten schiefen Ebenen mühelos gespannt werden können.It is also worth mentioning that the fixing pins and the associated Countersinks are so conical that the so created Wedge connection in cooperation with the position of the axis of rotation in relation to a Pulling out the drawer has a self-locking effect, which means it is an in appropriately controlled unlocking process required to open drawer to open. Of particular advantage The record security is also concerned that the fixing pin of the Drawer are assigned so that they lie in a plane which the The plane in which the tips of the registration elements move intersects. Around on the one hand the bending springs of the joints of the bridge in the closed state of the Relieve drawer, on the other hand a relatively high leveling and To let locking force take effect are preferably two to the Thighs of the bridge attacking leg springs provided that when Closing the drawer due to the provided on the drawer Fixing pins assigned to inclined planes can be tensioned effortlessly.

Bei dem im folgenden beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiel sind die Biegefedergelenke der Brücke an einer im Fahrtschreiber vorgesehenen Montageplatte befestigt. Es ist jedoch auch möglich die Befestigung der Biegefedergelenke und der Lagerungen für die Schenkelfedern unmittelbar an den Seitenwänden des Gehäuses des Fahrtschreibers vorzunehmen.In the embodiment described below, the Bending spring joints of the bridge at one provided in the tachograph Mounting plate attached. However, it is also possible to attach the Bending spring joints and the bearings for the leg springs directly on the side walls of the tachograph housing.

  • In Figur 1 ist mit 1 das quaderförmige Gehäuse des als Ausführungsbeispiel gewählten Fahrtschreibers bezeichnet, an dessen Frontfwand 2 ein Fensterausschnitt 3 für ein der Frontwand 2 zugeordnetes Display 4 ausgebildet ist. 5 stellt die frontseitige Blende einer in dem Gehäuse 1 geführten Schublade 6 dar. Von in der Frontwand 2 gelagerten Tasten 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 und 12 sind die Tasten 7 und 8 sowie die als Menütaste bezeichnete Taste 9 dem Fahrer beziehungsweise dem Beifahrer zum Anwählen wenigstens der wichtigsten Arbeitszeitdaten zugeordnet. Die Tasten 10 und 11 dienen dem Vor- und Rückwärtsblättern in den jeweils angewählten Datensätzen, die Taste 12 ist für das Entriegeln und Freigeben der Schublade 6 vorgesehen. Mittels einer mit 13 bezeichneten Plombe ist der Zugang zu einer Diagnosebuchse gesichert. Der Vollständigkeit halber sei erwähnt, daß, was auch aus der Figur 2 ersichtlich ist, der dargestellte Fahrtschreiber als Einbaugerät ausgebildet ist. Dementsprechend ist an der Rückwand 14 des Gehäuses 1 ein als Gewindebuchse oder Gewindeschaft ausgebildeter Richtzapfen 15 befestigt. Mit 16 ist ein ebenfalls der Rückwand 14 zugeordneter Steckersockel bezeichnet.In Figure 1, 1 is the cuboid housing of the as an embodiment designated tachograph, on the front wall 2 a Window cutout 3 for a display 4 assigned to the front wall 2 is. 5 represents the front panel of a drawer guided in the housing 1 6. Of keys 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 stored in the front wall 2 the 7 and 8 keys and the 9 key referred to as the menu key for the driver or the passenger to select at least the most important ones Assigned working time data. The buttons 10 and 11 are used for the forward and Scroll backward in the selected data records, the key 12 is for unlocking and releasing the drawer 6 provided. By means of a 13 seal is secured access to a diagnostic socket. The For the sake of completeness it should be mentioned that what can also be seen in FIG. 2 the tachograph shown is designed as a built-in device. Accordingly is on the rear wall 14 of the housing 1 as a threaded bushing or Threaded shaft trained guide pin 15 attached. At 16 there is also one designated the rear wall 14 associated connector base.

    Ferner läßt sich der Figur 2 entnehmen, daß an den nicht näher bezeichneten Seitenwänden des Gehäuses 1 der Schublade 6 zugeordnete Führungsschienen, von denen in Figur 2 eine dargestellt und mit 17 bezeichnet ist, befestigt sind. Mit 18 ist eine in den Fahrtschreiber eingelegte Diagrammscheibe bezeichnet, die eine Stundenskale 19 trägt, bei deren Darstellung sonst aber auf Ziffern und das übliche Netzwerk zur Interpretation der Aufzeichnungen der Einfachheit halber verzichtet wurde. Die Diagrammscheibe 18 ist auf einem unrund ausgebildeten Zentrier- und Mitnahmedorn 20 aufgenommen, welche an einer nicht dargestellten Auflage angeformt ist, die von einem in der Schublade 6 untergebrachten Laufwerk uhrzeitrichtig angetrieben wird.Furthermore, it can be seen from FIG. 2 that it is not closer to the designated side walls of the housing 1 associated with the drawer 6 Guide rails, one of which is shown in FIG. 2 and designated 17 is attached. At 18 is one inserted in the tachograph Designated chart, which carries an hour scale 19, at the Otherwise, however, on numbers and the usual network for interpretation the records have been omitted for the sake of simplicity. The Chart 18 is on a non-circular centering and Driving mandrel 20 added, which on a support, not shown is formed by a drive housed in the drawer 6 is driven at the correct time.

    Der Vollständigkeit halber sei noch darauf hingewiesen, daß der Fahrtschreiber für die Aufnahme von zwei in einem gewissen Abstand übereinander liegenden Diagrammscheiben ausgerüstet ist. In Figur 2 ist eine diesem Zweck dienende, zwischen den beiden Diagrammscheiben schwenkbar angeordnete Platte 21 dargestellt, die sich auf seitlichen Wangen 22, 23 der Schublade 6 abstützt und der oben liegenden Diagrammscheibe 18 als Registrierunterlage dient. Im Boden 26 der Schublade 6 ist ein Durchbruch 27 vorgesehen, damit die Diagrammscheiben bei der Entnahme besser gegriffen werden können. Mit 24 und 25 sind an der Schublade 6 angeformte Ansätze bezeichnet, in welchen Führungsschlitze 28 und 29 ausgebildet sind. Das heißt, die Ansätze dienen der Lagefixierung des vorderen Bereichs der Schublade 6, wenn diese geschlossen ist. Bei geschlossener Schublade 6 wirkt eine im Gehäuse 1 gelagerte, als Schenkelfeder ausgebildete Auswerffeder 30 auf die Schublade 6 ein. Dabei greift ein Schenkel 31 der Auswerffeder 30 in eine an der Rückseite der Schublade 6 ausgebildete Nut 32 ein. Mit 33 und 34 sind einem am Boden 35 des Gehäuses 1 befestigten Anschlagstift 36 und einem Lagerzapfen 37 der Auswerffeder 30 schubladenseitig zugeordnete Freisparungen bezeichnet. Mit 38 und 39 sind an der tailiert ausgebildeten Schublade 6 ausgeformte mit geeigneten Schlitzen - in Figur 5 ist einer dargestellt und mit 40 bezeichnet - versehene Führungsbacken bezeichnet. An den Führungsbacken 38, 39 sind schiefe Ebenen 41 und 42 ausgebildet und diesen konische Senkungen 43 und 44 zugeordnet.For the sake of completeness, it should be pointed out that the Tachograph for the inclusion of two at a certain distance superimposed diagram disks is equipped. In Figure 2 is one serving this purpose, swiveling between the two diagram disks arranged plate 21 shown, which is on side cheeks 22, 23 of the Drawer 6 supports and the overhead chart 18 as Registration document serves. There is an opening 27 in the bottom 26 of the drawer 6 provided so that the diagram disks are better gripped during removal can be. With 24 and 25 are 6 lugs formed on the drawer denotes in which guide slots 28 and 29 are formed. This means, the approaches serve to fix the position of the front area of the drawer 6, when it is closed. When the drawer 6 is closed, one acts in the Housing 1 mounted, designed as a leg spring ejector spring 30 on the Drawer 6 a. One leg 31 of the ejector spring 30 engages in one formed on the back of the drawer 6 groove 32. With 33 and 34 are a stop pin 36 attached to the bottom 35 of the housing 1 and one Bearing pin 37 assigned to the ejector spring 30 on the drawer side Called exemptions. At 38 and 39 are trained on the tailed Drawer 6 shaped with suitable slots - in Figure 5 is one shown and designated by 40 - provided guide jaws. On the guide jaws 38, 39 are inclined planes 41 and 42 and assigned to these conical depressions 43 and 44.

    In diese greifen, wenn die Schublade 6 geschlossen ist ebenfalls konisch gestaltete Fixierzapfen 45 und 46, die an den Enden der Schenkel 47 und 48 einer u-förmig gestalteten Brücke 49 befestigt sind, ein. Die perspektivische Darstellung der Brücke 49 (Figur 3) zeigt, daß die Schenkel 47, 48 sowie das Joch 50 der Brücke 49 durch abgekantete Leisten 51, 52 und 53 versteift und über relativ große Längen angreifende Eckverbinder 54 und 55 miteinander verbunden sind. Auf diese Weise stellt die Brücke 49 ein Bauteil von hoher Steifigkeit bei geringstem Raumbedarf dar. Lediglich die Enden der Schenkel 47 und 48, an denen an angebogenen Trägern 56 und 57 die Fixierzapfen befestigt sind, bieten eine gewisse Federungsfähigkeit in Richtung der Drehachse der als Wippe ausgebildeten Brücke 49. Bei dem vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel wird die Drehachse mittels zweier Biegefedergelenke 58 und 59, deren Blattfedern 60 und 61 beispielsweise mittels nicht näher bezeichneter Schrauben einerseits auf an der Brücke 49 angeformten Konsolen 62 und 63 andererseits auf einer Montageplatte 64 befestigt sind, verwirklicht. Mit 65 ist ein am Joch 50 der Brücke 49 angeformter Lappen bezeichnet, welcher, was nachfolgend noch näher erläutert wird, zum Entriegeln der Schublade 6 mit einer Kurvenscheibe 66 zusammenwirkt. Eine schlitzförmige Öffnung 67 dient dem Durchtritt einer die Kurvenscheibe 66, tragenden in den nachfolgenden Figuren dargestellten Welle durch das Joch 50. Weitere in den Eckverbindern vorgesehene nicht bezeichnete Öffnungen dienen ebenfalls dem Durchgreifen von auf der Montageplatte 64 angeordneten, jedoch nicht erfindungsrelevanten Bauelementen. In den Schenkeln 47 und 48 der Brücke 49 ausgebildete Einschnitte 68 und 69 sind für das Einhängen jeweils eines Schenkels 70 beziehungsweise 71 von als Kraftspeicher dienenden und auf der Montageplatte 64 gelagerten Schenkelfedern 72 und 73 vorgesehen.Reach into this when the drawer 6 is closed also conical designed fixing pins 45 and 46 at the ends of the legs 47 and 48 a U-shaped bridge 49 are attached. The perspective Representation of the bridge 49 (Figure 3) shows that the legs 47, 48 and the Yoke 50 of the bridge 49 stiffened by bevelled strips 51, 52 and 53 and corner connectors 54 and 55 which engage over relatively long lengths are connected. In this way, the bridge 49 represents a component of high Stiffness with the smallest space requirement. Only the ends of the legs 47 and 48, to which the fixing pins are attached to bent supports 56 and 57 are, offer a certain resilience in the direction of the axis of rotation as Rocker-formed bridge 49. In the present exemplary embodiment the axis of rotation by means of two flexible spring joints 58 and 59, the leaf springs 60 of which and 61, for example, on the one hand by means of unspecified screws on the bridge 49 molded brackets 62 and 63 on the other hand on a Mounting plate 64 are attached, realized. At 65 one on the yoke 50 is the Bridge 49 integrally formed rag, which, what follows is explained in more detail for unlocking the drawer 6 with a cam disk 66 interacts. A slot-shaped opening 67 serves for the passage of one Cam 66, supporting shaft shown in the following figures through the yoke 50. Other not designated in the corner connectors Openings also serve to reach through on the mounting plate 64 arranged, but not relevant to the invention components. In the Legs 47 and 48 of the bridge 49 formed incisions 68 and 69 are for the hanging of one leg 70 or 71 from as Lift mechanism serving and stored on the mounting plate 64 Leg springs 72 and 73 are provided.

    Wie aus der Draufsicht, Figur 4, ersichtlich ist, sind die Blattfedern 60 und 61 der Biegefedergelenke 58, 59 der Brücke 49 auf der Montageplatte 64 befestigt und die Schenkel 47, 48 der Brücke 49 greifen von der einen Seite der Montageplatte 64 durch geeignete Ausschnitte 74 und 75 auf die Gegenseite durch.

By means of the arrow P only the gear 81 fixed on the shaft 80 is intended Power flow of the gear unit must be shown symbolically. The shaft 80 carries also the already mentioned cam 66 and a control cam 82. You is on the one hand in a bearing block 83 formed on the mounting plate 64 on the other hand, stored in a bushing 84. The latter is in one of the Mounting plate 64 attached end wall 85 attached. Completeness half of it should be mentioned that the pre-assembled mounting plate 64 as ready-to-use assembly in the tachograph can be used, with the Sideboards attached to the tachograph serve as a support. The overlying edge areas of the mounting plate 64 are like FIG. 4 shows, for example, 86 or 87 for a suitable cut-outs multi-digit and thus clear edition trained.

    Die schematische Darstellung, Figur 5, zeigt im wesentlichen die gegenseitige Zuordnung von Schublade 6 und Montageplatte 64 beziehungsweise die Zuordnung der auf der Montageplatte 64 angeordneten, eine Fangvorrichtung 88 darstellenden Mittel zum Ausrichten und Verriegeln der Schublade 6. Dabei ist an der im wesentlichen als Seitenansicht dargestellten Schublade 6 ein Freischnitt zur Darstellung der Auswerfmittel vorgenommen und die entsprechende Partie des Gehäuses 1 der Schublade 6 zugeordnet. Die Montageplatte 64 und die auf ihr montierte Fangvorrichtung 88 sind als Schnitt gemäß der Schnittlinie AA in Figur 4 dargestellt. Mit 89 ist eine die wesentlichen elektronischen Bauteile des Fahrtschreibers tragende Leiterplatte bezeichnet. Ein auf der Leiterplatte 89 angeordneter Schalter 90 wirkt mit der Steuerkurve 82 zusammen, was nachfolgend noch näher erläutert wird.The schematic representation, FIG. 5, essentially shows the mutual assignment of drawer 6 and mounting plate 64 or the assignment of the arranged on the mounting plate 64, a catch device 88 means for aligning and locking the Drawer 6. It is shown on the essentially as a side view Drawer 6 made a free cut to show the ejection means and the corresponding part of the housing 1 assigned to the drawer 6. The Mounting plate 64 and the safety device 88 mounted on it are in section shown along the section line AA in Figure 4. At 89, that's one essential electronic components of the tachograph carrying circuit board designated. A switch 90 arranged on the printed circuit board 89 interacts with the Control curve 82 together, which will be explained in more detail below.

    Die Figur 5 zeigt gemäß des Bewegungspfeils die Baugruppen im Zustand des Schließens der Schublade 6. Das heißt, der Schenkel 31 der Auswerffeder 30 greift in die Nut 32 ein, die Auswerffeder 30 wird gespannt. Gleichzeitig gleiten die Fixierzapfen 45, 46 auf den schiefen Ebenen 41, 42 der Führungsbacken 38, 39 der Schublade 6, aufwärts, wobei die Brücke 49 entgegen der Wirkkraft der Schenkelfedern 72, 73 verschwenkt wird.
